@usebool/sdk-react

Bool provides simple and powerful feature management tools, giving you total control of your feature rollout. Test in production, ship code faster, simpler, safer and smarter.

Introduction

This package is our React (JavaScript) SDK. This is intended for specific usage within React applications. It is build upon our core JavaScript SDK.

Getting started

Install the React SDK using your package manager of choice: ```js // npm example npm install @usebool/sdk-react // yarn example yarn add @usebool/sdk-react // pnpm example pnpm install @usebool/sdk-react ``` To use the JavaScript SDK, you will need the an id token. This token will be provided in the bool dashboard and it is not a secret, meaning that there is no danger in exposing it in your client-side code.

SDK usage

You will wrap you application with our main provider component named FeatureFlagProvider. This component requires an idToken property used for the initialization of the SDK. ```js import { FeatureFlagProvider } from '@usebool/sdk-react'; function App() { return (

<FeatureFlagProvider idToken="c80f32fe6f5042c5bb7d9e78a46935da">

<div className="App">

<Header />

<Content />

<Footer />

</div>

</FeatureFlagProvider>

); } ``` You are now left with fetching feature flags where you have two options.

useGetFeatures

For fetching all the feature flags you can call the useGetFeatures hook. This returns a list of feature flags. ```js // Resolves in a list of feature flags const allFeatures = useGetFeatures(); ``` If there are no feature flags, an empty list will be returned. In case of a faulty request the function will log a generic error saying "Something went wrong. It seems you don't have any feature flags.", and will return an empty list by default.

useHasFeature

```js // Resolves in a boolean const myAmazingFeature = useHasFeature('MYAMAZINGFEATURE'); ``` In case the feature flag cannot be found, the function will log an error saying 'A feature with key ${featureKey} was not found. Did you create it in your dashboard?' and will return false. By returning false the hook provides fallback in case of an accidental deletion of a feature flag.

Usage

```js // App.js import { FeatureFlagProvider } from "@usebool/sdk-react"; function App() { return (

<FeatureFlagProvider 

idToken="57847459-d4a8-4a88-8809-fc50b74f89d6"

>

<div className="App">

<Header />

<Content />

<Footer />

</div>

</FeatureFlagProvider>

); } // Header.js import { useHasFeature } from "@usebool/sdk-react"; export const Header = () => {

const experimentalHeadline = useHasFeature('EXPERIMENTAL_HEADLINE');

return (

<header>

{experimentalHeadline ? <h1>Experiment</h1> : <h1>Original</h1>}

</header>

);

} ```

TypeScript

This package also provides the types in the event of using typescript in your project. ```ts import { BoolClient, ClientContext, FeatureFlag, ProviderProps, } from '@usebool/sdk-react'; type BoolClient = { hasFeature: (featureName: string) => Promise; getFeatures: () => Promise>; }; type ClientContext = { flags: FeatureFlag; client: BoolClient | undefined; }; type FeatureFlag = { id: string; key: string; name: string; value: boolean; description?: string; }; type ProviderProps = { idToken: string; children: React.ReactElement | React.ReactElement; }; ```
